There's a guy in 7th Stand User who has a stand named [CHICKEN SHACK].
This game's alright. Way old school grindy though. It's always amazing though to see one person make a fan game of this kind of scale though. (and a lady to boot!)
all 3 Diamond is Unbreakable openings are perfect and also Diamond is Unbreakable is perfect
the thing about it is, is it's very good, is the thing
Morioh is such a lovably built setting, the cast is huge and extremely memorable, it's actually written for everything to stack on top of each other and actually build to something rather than a series of disposable one-off episodes, Kira is a series-best villain with a ton of thematic depth, Josuke is an eminently likable protagonist, it all just looks unbelievable with a terrific color palette so it's just a treat to watch at every moment
the main reason I want to read through to part 8 is hearing that Jojolion is a remixed version of part 4 set in the new universe's version of Morioh
If I had my druthers I would want a light redo that tightens up the plotting and has Kira from the start
It seems pretty clear that that was only come up with partway through so upon going back it's weird that the first third of the entire arc has nothing to do with what you remember as the plot
the anime does it a little better by having a handful of Kira tease scenes in there, but they're basically unrelated
Ultimately tight plotting isn't what you come to Jojo for
Which is probably why jojolion falls a little flat for me, it's a genre that kinda works better with tighter plotting
yeah it's definitely something you cannot ask of Mr. "what was this guy's power again? ahh fuck it, I'll just give him new ones" Araki

NO ONE JUST DEFLECTS THE EMERALD SPLASH

I am pretty sure that the only thing the Emerald Splash actually does in the story is “gets deflected”
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
Is Kakyoin the crusader with the highest rate of straight-up failures? Like granted the results are a bit skewed because SO MANY episodes are about Polnareff, but man, Kakyoin feeds a baby poop and I'm struggling to think of episodes where he straight-up saves everyone.*
*Okay look I know Jotaro usually just saves everyone anyway, but still

Kaykoin does eventually trap the Tower on the plane and is the dude that figures out Death 13s whole deal.
And he dies so that the team can figure out the World’s trick.
Kakyoin also just fucking vanishes for half the story.

Kakyoin, and I'm going to say it again, feeds a baby its own poop
To be fair, that was a pretty evil baby

Do you think there would be a stand nowadays that streams on Twitch

Hermit Purple could create psychic images via a TV display, and RHCP could travel through electric wiring and use the phone, so I’d say it’s likely that a stand could use the internet to do stuff.

I also like that Avdol is all “pick a card and we will name your stand off that”
When
A: every other major arcana has a stand named after them
And
B: the majority of a tarot deck is not the major arcana
I just imagine in an alternate universe Jotaro draws like, the tower and Avdol goes “shit, not that one, draw again” and then draws like, the three of cups.

God, Stardust Crusaders has some REALLY GOOD episodes
and then some REALLY BAD ones
I think if @Janson and I watch it I will be judicious in skipping some of them

Silver Chariot should be the Ace of Swords.

Like the early parts feel like they're building up to him being a big deal and then eh they beat him anyway let's move on to the real villain
Which, it's all still good so it's minor quibble but it feels a little clunky at the big picture level

it's fine

His biggest failures were vs Jotaro, vs N’doul, and vs D’arby the gamer. Most of his other encounters at least did something.
But as for Emerald Splash, I don’t think it ever landed a direct hit after the fight with Jotaro.

Fair point, fair point.
Also I'm still listening to Yare Yare boys and any time they talk about the Red Hot Chili Peppers it kills me dead
I like it
the hosts do another show called Funpoint where they force each other to listen to albums by bands only one of them likes
the episode about Blood Sugar Sex Magik is very good

Oh, I should listen to that
any time they sing RHCP songs it's... it's good comedy
